I just bought 2 new chinchillas for my kids.i bought a 3 level ferret/critter cage.I made sure we got the right food,treats,lava chew stones,dust bath,soft bedding.We also were told to get a wheel for them to be able to run.Yet, I read on here it could hurt there little backs? Also, I was told to get them a hiding house,like 3inch round PVC pipe,cut in 10inch sections. I ordered a 300 pg.book about taking care of chinchillas.But, It will not arrive til the 31st .I don't want to wait that long to make sure they are comfortable,an have all they need..I will take any kind of comments or suggestions any-one that knows how to care for a chinchilla may have.Thanks so much.

Have you checked out the articles on our Chinchilla care page yet? There are articles on chinchilla health, housing, diet and nutrition, playtime, behavior and interaction.

Yeah. Check it out! I used to have a Chinchilla about 5 or 6 years ago.  Don't make the tears appear.. Here's a picture below

If you get them a wheel try to ge a solid one. This won't hurt their feet. Mine dearly love their wheel and run on it a lot.
